Jag har varit VD i IT-branschen i mer än 25 år. Men det är ledarskap som är min passion. Därför är jag så genuint tacksam för att i många år ha haft Mats Eklund på Encourage som kvalificerad samtalspartner när jag velat ta mig och mitt ledningsteam till nya nivåer.
There cannot be more than a handful of people who understand business, consulting and human behaviour to the level Mats Eklund does. His unique background combined with excellent coaching has provided me with a sounding board and healthy reference points for business and life.
It delivered above expectations. Not only did we manage to enter the larger organisation successfully, we also kept vital processes intact and strengthened our corporate culture — with increased job satisfaction for everybody as a result.
Varje coachingsession har gett mig inspiration och varit utvecklande och stödjande i mitt förändringsarbete som ledare och människa. Mötena har varit stödjande men också utmanande och gett mig många insikter om mig själv.
Mats quickly grasps the situation and makes a crystal-clear analysis. He has an unusual combination of a sharp brain and a humble kindness.
Mats' assessments of candidates are always of the highest quality, and he always challenges us. As an advisor he is crisp in his recommendations, very thorough, and a highly sympathetic individual to work with.
Thanks to Mats, I now have a job which I would never have thought I could get.
An authentic attempt to reach something, or somewhere, through the exertion of effort.
Our work is grounded in a proven leadership development system, refined over two decades and taught in executive education. It gives leaders a clear structure for reflection, intention and lasting change.
